Federated Analog Data Pipelines Across Partner Space Agencies

Federated analog pipelines across NASA, ESA, and JAXA have to survive LunaNet conformance, CCSDS bundle formats, and three separate data archives. A quilt-first pipeline ports cleanly.

A modern planetary analog campaign rarely belongs to one space agency anymore, and the data-pipeline burden has not caught up with that reality. The NASA LunaNet Interoperability Specification (2025 baseline) lays out the federated service specification NASA, ESA, JAXA, and partner agencies have agreed to baseline against, and the NASA LunaNet Interoperability Specification program page documents the multi-agency provider model that mission architects now have to design into flight concepts. Federated analog pipelines across partner space agencies have to survive that spec from analog through flight without breaking the provenance chain.
